Great trophies and you got to hunt with both Leon and Paddy. It doesn't get much better than that!
Those are some great old buff.

Vince,

I called Wendell the other day to see how you had done. Wow. Brings me back to that hour on the phone last year when we talked about my hunt. I see Parakat was your tracker - hell of a guy, huh? Those pics sure bring back some memories!

Congrats!

Man, 34 days in Tanzania. It doesn't get better than that. Great pics.

WOW! Great hunt
Congratulations!!

congratulations on the hunt of a lifetime. I got to know Leon on a Botswana hunt a couple of years ago, he was my buddie's PH, he is an excellent PH. It is easy to understand how he got the nickname "turbo".

Vince,

Love some of those trophies. Old daggaboys with character I may add, a super mature eland, great leopard and lion. What a stunning lesser kudu.
Hope to see you in Dallas.

Mike

Congrats on a great safari and awesome hunting report. Very Well Done

Congratulations on a fantastic FIRST African hunt. You have, obviously, caught the addiction:

Beautiful trophies & congrats on a successful adventure!

It is reminiscent of the safaris of yesterday where one would
hunt for 1-2 months &
take a full bag.

Good for you, you're living the dream!

Wonderful!

I think this takes the cake ... you are the man Vince!

Geez! You've done it ALL! (Bonzer eland there.)

Great hunt! Love that Maasailand camp. Great Nyassa wildebeest, too, and it looks like Paddy finally bought a new pair of shoes.

Vince that was a great hunt report and like the shooting of the ele.


Mike

Congrats on a Spectacular Hunt of a Lifetime!!!

This is one of the greatest hunting adventures I've seen here including your hunt report...Congratulations on a remarkable safari!

That was a SPLENDID hunt indeed!!!

Wow!!!

Congradulations Vince on a super safari with Leon. Leon can certainly get it done and his company is very enjoyable. Your photos really bring back alot of memories for me. Gerard Miller is a good friend of mine and I have photos, from many different trips, of Gerard and I standing at his front door like the one you have with Patty and Gerard. Thanks for sharing

Thanks for sharing...

Wow, Vince! Double WOW!
Great trophies all around. What an ancient buffalo. For my money, Nyassa Wildebeest are one of the most beautiful and worthy trophies. I'm proud to say I have one, too. Congrats!

Waidmannsheil! Great story.

WOW you are the dream client!!
Excellent report and great animals

AMAZING hunt! The trophies, the photos, all fantastic! Huge congratulations!

I love that eyeglass-camera footage.

Excellent trip report and congratulations on the hunt of a lifetime. I'm sitting here trying to avoid letting my envy turn into a more base emotion!

Thank you very much for sharing your experience with us.

Vince,
What a truly outstanding hunt and report! From talking to you prior to your trip, I had every reason to think it would be a success, but having now learned about the details, it was indeed the hunt of a lifetime.
Reading your report certainly brought back some great memories of my hunt there with Leon. In fact, Leon and I have been rehashing some of those memories today as he's staying with us this week. We're going quail hunting tomorrow, but no doubt that hunt will be interspersed with lots of fun talk about Africa and my hopes of getting back there again.
Thanks for sharing your hunt with us and I hope to share a camp with you in Botswana as we both chase elephants with Turbo Leon.

This was a great hunt, but, more than that, it was a grand adventure. Congratulations and thanks for the report.

Mzuri sana, bwana! Im green with envy, 34 days in TZ. Congrats on the safari of a lifetime!

Apparently being a lawyer in Austin has its advantages. What a great hunt! Congratz!

Hard to top indeed ! Great report and hunt.

It is going to be tough to top that one! What a hunt!! Wow.

Cool stuff

Wow......just wow.......
